The threat of campus disruption by the Students for a Democratic Society (SDS) at Fullerton Junior College (Calif.) provided the basis for this report. An account of the attempt by the SDS to organize at Fullerton and a brief history of the movement were presented. Challenges posed by the SDS were examined along with the causes of student unrest in an effort to formulate a plan to quell student activism. The suggested plan was comprised of the following steps: isolate and discredit SDS leaders before they establish a following; alert students in advance of expected attempts to disrupt instruction; take a "hard line" with demonstrators; initiate reform in the area of faculty-student-community relationships; develop an imaginative and interesting community service program; provide a relevant curriculum; and listen to potential supporters of SDS and accede to reasonable demands. The report also included a series of documents pertinent to the problem of campus disruption. [Not available in hard copy due to marginal legibility of original document.] (MB)
